PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX Fast Ethernet 100BaseT Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

LEDs

The PA-FE-TX and the PA-FE-FX have an enabled LED, standard on all port adapters, and a bank of three status LEDs for the ports. After system initialization, the enabled LED goes on to indicate that the PA-FE has been enabled for operation. (The LEDs are shown in Figure 1-7.)

Figure 1-7 LEDs on the PA-FE Port Adapter—Partial Faceplate View of PA-FE-TX

H4710

The following conditions must be met before the enabled LED goes on:

• The PA-FE is correctly connected and receiving power.

• The FE-equipped card or chassis contains a valid microcode version that has been downloaded

successfully.

• The bus recognizes the PA-FE port adapter or PA-FE-equipped VIP2.

If any of these conditions is not met, or if the initialization fails for other reasons, the enabled LED does not go on.

Following are the three status LEDs and an explanation of what each indicates:

• MII—On when the MII port is selected as the active port by the controller.

• Link—When the RJ-45 or SC port is active, this LED is on when the port adapter is receiving a

carrier signal from the network. When the MII port is active, this LED is an indication of network activity, and it ﬂickers on and off proportionally to this activity.

• RJ-45 (or FIBER on PA-FE-FX)—On when the RJ-45 (or FIBER) port is selected as the active

port by the controller.

Either the MII LED or the RJ-45 (or FIBER) LED should be on at any one time; never both.

Receptacles, Cables, and Pinouts

Each Fast Ethernet port on the PA-FE-TX has an RJ-45 connector to attach to Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP) for 100BaseTX, and a MII connector that permits connection through external transceivers to multimode ﬁber for 100BaseFX, or to Category 3, 4, and 5 UTP or foil twisted-pair (FTP) for 100BaseT4 physical media. Only one connector can be used at one time. The RJ-45 connection does not require an external transceiver. The MII connection (a 40-pin, D-shell type connector) requires an external physical sublayer (PHY) and an external transceiver.

Each Fast Ethernet port on the PA-FE-FX port adapter has an SC-type ﬁber-optic connector for 100BaseFX, and an MII connector that permits connection through external transceivers to multimode ﬁber for 100BaseFX, or to Category 3, 4, and 5 UTP or STP for 100BaseT4 physical media. Only one connector can be used at one time. The MII connection (a 40-pin, D-shell type connector) requires an external physical sublayer (PHY) and an external transceiver.

Warning

The ports labeled “Ethernet,” “10BaseT,” “Token Ring,” “Console,” and “AUX” are safety extra-low voltage (SELV) circuits. SELV circuits should only be connected to other SELV circuits. Because the BRI circuits are treated like telephone-network voltage, avoid connecting the SELV circuit to the telephone network voltage (TNV) circuits.

Note Referring to the RJ-45 pinout in Table 1-1, proper common-mode line terminations should be

used for the unused Category 5, UTP cable pairs 4/5 and 7/8. Common-mode termination reduces the contributions to electromagnetic interference (EMI) and susceptibility to common-mode sources. Wirepairs 4/5 and 7/8 are actively terminated in the RJ-45, 100BaseTX port circuitry in the PA-FE-TX.

Depending on your RJ-45 interface cabling requirements, use the pinouts in Figure 1-9 and Figure 1-10.

Depending on the type of media you use between the MII connection on the port adapter and your switch or hub, the network side of your 100BaseT transceivershould be appropriately equipped with ST-type connectors (for optical ﬁber), BNC connectors, and so forth. Figure 1-13 shows the pin orientation of the female MII connector on the port adapter. The port adapters are ﬁeld-replaceable units (FRUs).

The MII receptacle uses 2-56 screw-type locks, called jackscrews (shown in Figure 1-13), to secure the cable or transceiver to the MII port. MII cables and transceivers have knurled thumbscrews that you fasten to the jackscrews on the PA-FE-TX’s MII connector.Use the jackscrews to provide strain relief for your MII cable. Figure 1-13 shows the MII female connector (receptacle).

Caution Before you attach your MII transceiver to the MII receptacle on your PA-FE port adapter,

ensure that your MII transceiver responds to physical sublayer (PHY) address 0 per section 22.2.4.4. “PHY Address” of the IEEE 802.3u speciﬁcation; otherwise, interface problems might result. Conﬁrm that this capability is available on your MII transceiver with the transceiver’s vendor or in the transceiver’s documentation. If a selection for Isolation Mode is available, we recommend you use this setting (if no mention is made of PHY addressing).

PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX Fast Ethernet 100BaseT Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

Fast Ethernet Overview

The term Ethernet is commonly used for all carrier sense multiple access collision detect (CSMA/CD),LANs that generally conform to Ethernet speciﬁcations, including Fast Ethernet under IEEE 802.3u.

Note 100BaseTX is intended for Environment A, and 100BaseFX is intended for Environment B.

IEEE 802.3u is well suited to applications where a local communication medium must carry sporadic,occasionallyheavytrafﬁc at high peak data rates. Stations on a CSMA/CD LAN can access the network at any time. Before sending data, the station listens to the network to see if it is already in use. If it is, the station waits until the network is not in use, then transmits; this is half-duplex operation. A collision occurs when two stations listen for network trafﬁc, hear none, and transmit almost simultaneously. When this happens, both transmissions are damaged, and the stations must retransmit. The stations detect the collision and use backoff algorithms to determine when they should retransmit.

Both Ethernet and IEEE 802.3u are broadcast networks, which means that all stations see all transmissions. Each station must examine received frames to determine whether it is the intended destination and, if it is, pass the frame to a higher protocol layer for processing.

Fast Ethernet Overview

IEEE 802.3u speciﬁes the following different physical layers for 100BaseT:

• 100BaseTX—100BaseT, half and full duplex over Category 5 unshielded twisted-pair (UTP),

Electronics Industry Association/Telecommunications Industry Association [EIA/TIA]–568-compliant cable

• 100BaseFX—100BaseT, half and full duplex over optical ﬁber

• 100BaseT4—100BaseT, half and full duplex over Category 3, 4, or 5 UTP or foil twisted-pair

(FTP) cabling with four pairs; also called 4T+ or T2, which is 2-pair UTP over Category 3 cable.

Each physical layer protocol has a name that summarizes its characteristics in the format speed/signaling method/segment length, where speed is the LAN speed in Mbps, signaling method is either baseband or broadband, and segment length is typically the maximum length between stations in hundreds of meters. Therefore, 100BaseT speciﬁes a 100-Mbps, baseband LAN with maximum network segments.

2-2

In Cisco 7000 series or Cisco 7500 series routers, PA-FE-FX and PA-FE-TX require the following VIP2 models:

• VIP2-15 (1 MB of SRAM, 8 MB of DRAM)

• VIP2-40 (2 MB of SRAM, 32 MB of DRAM)

• VIP2-50 (4 to 8 MB of SRAM, 32 to 128 MB of DRAM)

Note The minimum recommended VIP2 model is a VIP2-15. The maximum transmission unit

(MTU) size available for two Fast Ethernet port adapters on a VIP2 require the additional VIP2 SRAM availableon VIP2-15 models, or greater,to ensure adequate packet buffers.The VIP2-15 can also be used if you only have one Fast Ethernet port adapter on a VIP2.

The VIP2-10 has certain conﬁguration constraints because of its limited SRAM for packet buffers; therefore, we do not recommend you use VIP2-10 with Fast Ethernet port adapters.

PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX Fast Ethernet 100BaseT Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

Caution The VIP2 requires that Cisco 7000 series routers have the RSP7000 and RSP7000CI

installed. The VIP2 will not operate properly with the Route Processor (RP), Switch Processor (SP), or Silicon Switch Processor (SSP) installed in a Cisco 7000 series router.

Electrical Equipment Guidelines

Follow these basic guidelines when working with any electrical equipment:

• Before beginning any procedures requiring access to the chassis interior, locate the emergency

power-off switch for the room in which you are working.

• Disconnect all power and external cables before moving a chassis.

• Do not work alone when potentially hazardous conditions exist and never assume that power has

been disconnected from a circuit; always check.

• Do not perform any action that creates a potential hazard to people or makes the equipment

unsafe. Carefully examine your work area for possible hazards such as moist ﬂoors, ungrounded power extension cables, and missing safety grounds.

Telephone Wiring Guidelines

Use the following guidelines when working with any equipment that is connected to telephone wiring or to other network cabling:

2-4

• Never install telephone wiring during a lightning storm.

• Never install telephone jacks in wet locations unless the jack is speciﬁcally designed for wet

locations.

PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX Fast Ethernet 100BaseT Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

• Never touch uninsulated telephone wires or terminals unless the telephone line has been

disconnected at the network interface.

• Use caution when installing or modifying telephone lines.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

Electrostatic discharge (ESD) damage, which can occur when electronic cards or components are improperly handled, can result in complete or intermittent failures. Port adapters and processor modules consist of printed circuit boards that are ﬁxed in metal carriers. Electromagnetic interference (EMI) shielding and connectors are integral components of the carrier. Although the metal carrier helps to protect the board from ESD, use a preventive antistatic strap during handling.

Following are guidelines for preventing ESD damage:

• Always use an ESD wrist or ankle strap and ensure that it makes good skin contact.

• Connect the equipment end of the strap to an unﬁnished chassis surface.

• When installing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to

properly seat the bus connectors in the backplane or midplane. These devices prevent accidental removal, provide proper grounding for the system, and help to ensure that bus connectors are properly seated.

Preventing Electrostatic Discharge Damage

• When removing a component, use any available ejector levers or captive installation screws to

release the bus connectors from the backplane or midplane.

• Handle carriers by available handles or edges only; avoid touching the printed circuit boards or

connectors.

• Place a removed component board side up on an antistatic surface or in a static shielding

container. If you plan to return the component to the factory, immediately place it in a static shielding container.

• Avoid contact between the printed circuit boards and clothing. The wrist strap only protects

components from ESD voltages on the body; ESD voltages on clothing can still cause damage.

• Never attempt to remove the printed circuit board from the metal carrier.

Caution For safety,periodically check the resistance value of the antistatic strap. The measurement

should be between 1 and 10 megohms.

Preparing for Installation 2-5

FCC Class B Compliance

The equipment described in this document generates and may radiate radio-frequency energy. If it is not installed in accordance with Cisco’s installation instructions, it may cause interference with radio and television reception. This equipment has been tested and found to comply with the limits for a Class B digital device in accordance with the speciﬁcations in part 15 of the FCC rules. These speciﬁcations are designed to provide reasonable protection against such interference in a residential installation. However, there is no guarantee that interference will not occur in a particular installation.

You can determine whether your equipment is causing interference by turning it off. If the interference stops, it was probably caused by the Cisco equipment or one of its peripheral devices. If the equipment causes interference to radio or television reception, try to correct the interference by using one or more of the following measures:

• Turn the television or radio antenna until the interference stops.

• Move the equipment to one side or the other of the television or radio.

• Move the equipment farther away from the television or radio.

• Plug the equipment into an outlet that is on a different circuit from the television or radio. (That

is, make certain the equipment and the television or radio are on circuits controlled by different circuit breakers or fuses.)

Modiﬁcations to this product not authorized by Cisco Systems, Inc. could void the FCC approval and negate your authority to operate the product.

CHAPTER

VIP2 and the PA-FE Port Adapters

This chapter provides information on the PA-FE-TX and the PA-FE-FX port adapters and their use in the VIP2 in Cisco 7000 series and Cisco 7500 series routers. This chapter contains the following sections:

• Installation Overview, page 3-1

• Removing a Port Adapter, page 3-4

• Installing a Port Adapter, page 3-6

Installation Overview

Depending on the circumstances, you might need to install a new port adapter on a VIP2 motherboard or replace a failed port adapter in the ﬁeld. In either case, you need a number 1 Phillips screwdriver, an antistatic mat onto which you can place the removed interface processor, and an antistatic container into which you can place a failed port adapter for shipment back to the factory.

Caution To prevent system problems, do not remove port adapters from the VIP2 motherboard or

attempt to install other port adapters on the VIP2 motherboard while the system is operating. To install or replace port adapters, ﬁrst remove the VIP2 from its interface processor slot.

Note Each port adapter circuit board is mounted to a metal carrier and is sensitive to ESD damage.

Each port adapter has one Phillips-head screw that secures it to its port adapter slot. We strongly recommend that the following procedures be performed by a Cisco-certiﬁed service provider; however, this is not a requirement.

While the VIP2 supports online insertion and removal, individual port adapters do not. To replace port adapters, you must ﬁrst remove the VIP2 from the chassis, then install or replace port adapters as required. If a blank port adapter is installed on the VIP2 in which you want to install a new port adapter, you must ﬁrst remove the VIP2 from the chassis, then remove the blank port adapter.

When only one port adapter is installed on a VIP2, a blank port adapter must ﬁll the empty slot to allow the VIP2 and router chassis to conform to electromagnetic interference (EMI) emissions requirements and to allow proper air ﬂow through the chassis. If you plan to install a new port adapter, you must ﬁrst remove the blank port adapter.

Removing a Port Adapter

Use the following standard procedure to remove a port adapter from a VIP2:

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap between you and an unﬁnished chassis surface.

Warning Duringthis procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card. Do

not directly touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.

Note If you want to install a new port adapter on a VIP2 with a single port adapter, you

must ﬁrst remove the blank port adapter from the port adapter slot in which you want to install the new port adapter.

Step 2 Fora newport adapter installation or a port adapter replacement, disconnect any interface

cables from the ports on the front of the port adapter (although this is not required). You can remove VIP2s with cables attached; however, we do not recommend it.

CHAPTER

Cisco 7200 Series and the PA-FE Port Adapters

This chapter provides information on the PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX port adapters and their use in the Cisco 7200 series routers. This chapter contains the following sections:

• Installation Overview, page 4-1

• Removing a Port Adapter, page 4-2

• Installing a Port Adapter, page 4-4

Note The Cisco 7206VXR and the Cisco 7206 can be used as router shelves in a Cisco AS5800

Universal Access Server. For information about the Cisco 7206VXR and the Cisco 7206 as router shelves, see the Cisco 7200 Series Port Adapter Hardware Conﬁguration Guidelines.

Installation Overview

You might need to install a new port adapter in a Cisco 7200 series router or replace a failed port adapter in the ﬁeld. In either case, no tools are necessary; all port adapters available for the Cisco 7200 series routers connect directly to the router midplane and are locked into position by a port adapter lever. When removing and replacing a port adapter, you need an antistatic mat onto which you can place a removed port adapter and an antistatic container into which you can place a failed port adapter for shipment back to the factory.

Note Cisco 7200 series routers support online insertion and removal (OIR); therefore, you do not

have to power down the routers when removing and replacing a PA-FE.

When a port adapter slot is not in use, a blank port adapter must ﬁll the empty slot to allow the router to conform to EMI emissions requirements and to allow proper airﬂow across the port adapters. If you plan to install a new port adapter in a slot that is not in use, you must ﬁrst remove a blank port adapter.

ThePA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FXcan be installed in any availableport adapter slot in Cisco 7200 series routers. Figure 4-1 shows a Cisco 7206 with a PA-FE-TX installed in slot 4.

Cisco uBR7200 Series and the PA-FE Port Adapters

This chapter provides information on the PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX port adapters and their use in Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband routers. This chapter contains the following sections:

• Installation Overview, page 5-1

• Removing a Port Adapter, page 5-2

• Installing a Port Adapter, page 5-4

Installation Overview

You might need to install a new port adapter in a Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router or replace a failed port adapter in the ﬁeld. In either case, no tools are necessary; all port adapters available for the Cisco uBR7200 series connect directly to the router midplane and are locked into position by a port adapter lever (Cisco uBR7223) or retention clip (Cisco UBR7246). When removing and replacing a port adapter, you need an antistatic mat onto which you can place a removed port adapter and an antistatic container into which you can place a failed port adapter for shipment back to the factory.

Note Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband routers support online insertion and

removal (OIR); therefore, you do not have to power down the routers when removing and replacing a PA-FE.

The PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX can be installed in any of the available port adapter slots in a Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router. Figure 5-1 shows a PA-FE-TX installed in port adapter slot 2 of a Cisco uBR7200 series router.

Removing a Port Adapter

Use the following procedure to remove a port adapter from a Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband router:

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap between you and an unﬁnished chassis surface.

Warning Duringthis procedure, wear grounding wrist straps to avoid ESD damage to the card. Do

not directly touch the backplane with your hand or any metal tool, or you could shock yourself.

Step 2 Unlock the retaining mechanism of the port adapter:

— For a Cisco uBR7246, slide the port adapter retention clip for the desired port adapter slot

down in the unlocked position. The retention clip remains in the unlocked position. (See Figure 5-3.)

Depending on your circumstances, you might need to install a new port adapter in a Cisco 7100 seriesrouterorreplaceafailedport adapter in the ﬁeld. All port adapters available for the Cisco 7100 series connect directly to the router and are locked into position by a locking tab with two screws (see Figure 6-1 or Figure 6-2). You need a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws.

Note Cisco 7100 series routers support online insertion and removal (OIR); therefore, you do not

have to power down the router when removing and replacing a port adapter.

Removing a Port Adapter

Use the following procedure to remove a port adapter from a Cisco 7100 series router:

Step 1 Attach an ESD-preventive wrist strap between you and the chassis. (See Figure 6-1 or

Figure 6-2 for the location of the ESD plug.)

Step 2 Use a number 2 Phillips screwdriver to loosen the screws on the locking tab; then slide

the tab down to the unlocked position. (See Figure 6-1 or Figure 6-2.)

Step 3 Grasp the handle on the port adapter and pull the port adapter from the router, about

halfway out of its slot. If you are removing a blank port adapter, pull the blank port adapter completely out of the chassis slot.

Note As you disengage the port adapter from the router, OIR administratively shuts

down all active interfaces on the port adapter.

Step 4 With the port adapter halfway out of the slot, disconnect all cables from the port adapter. Step 5 After disconnecting the cables, pull the port adapter from its chassis slot.

CHAPTER

Installing PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables

To continue your PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX port adapter installation, you must install the port adapter’sinterface cables. The following instructions apply to all supported platforms. This chapter contains the following sections:

• PA-FE Port Adapter RJ-45 and MII Connections, page 7-1

• Attaching PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables, page 7-1

PA-FE Port Adapter RJ-45 and MII Connections

On a single PA-FE, you can use either the RJ-45 (or SC for PA-FE-FX) connection or the MII connection. (RJ-45, SC, and MII cables are not available from Cisco Systems; they are available from outside commercial cable vendors.) If you have two PA-FE port adapters on your VIP2, you can use the RJ-45 (or SC for PA-FE-FX)connection on one port adapter and the MII connection on the other port adapter.

Caution Before you attach your MII transceiver to the MII receptacle on your PA-FE, ensure that

your MII transceiver responds to physical sublayer (PHY) address 0 per section 22.2.4.4. “PHY Address” of the IEEE 802.3u speciﬁcation; otherwise, interface problems might result. Conﬁrm that this capability is available on your MII transceiver with the transceiver’s vendor or in the transceiver’s documentation. If a selection for Isolation Mode is available, we recommend you use this setting (if no mention is made of PHY addressing).

Attaching PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables

Use the following procedure to connect RJ-45, SC (PA-FE-FX), or MII cables:

Step 1 If you have MII connections, attach an MII cable directly to the MII receptacle on the

PA-FE or attach a 100BaseT transceiver,with the media appropriate to your application, to the MII receptacle on the PA-FE.(See Figure 7-1 for the PA-FE-TX and Figure 7-2 for the PA-FE-FX.)

If you haveRJ-45 connections, attach the Category 5 UTP cable directly to the RJ-45 port on the PA-FE.(See Figure 7-1 for PA-FE-TX and Figure 7-2 for PA-FE-FX.)The PA-FE is an end station device and not a repeater. You must connect the PA-FE to a repeater or hub.

If you havean SC connection (PA-FE-FX),attach the cable directly to the SC port on the PA-FE-FX. (See Figure 7-2.) Use either one duplex SC connector or two simplex SC connectors, and observe the correct relationship between the receive(R) and transmit (T) ports on the PA-FE-FX and your repeater.

Installing PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables 7-1

Attaching PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables

Note Each PA-FE-FX or PA-FE-TX can have either an MII attachment or an RJ-45 (or

SC) attachment, but not both simultaneously. The MII and RJ-45 (or SC) receptacles represent two physical connection options for one Fast Ethernet interface.

Attaching PA-FE Port Adapter Interface Cables

Step 2 For the PA-FE-TX, attach the ferrite bead to the RJ-45 cable (at either end), as shown in

Figure 7-3.

Caution The ferrite bead prevents electromagnetic interference (EMI) from affecting the

PA-FE-TX-equipped system and is a required component for proper system operation.

Figure 7-3 Attaching the Ferrite Bead around the RJ-45 Cable

Caution

Ferrite bead RJ-45 cable

To prevent problems on your PA-FE and network, do not simultaneously connect RJ-45

with ferrite bead

(or SC) and MII cables to one PA-FE.On a single PA-FE,only one network connection can be used at one time. Only connect cables that comply with EIA/TIA-568 standards. (See Table 1-1 and Table 1-2 in the “Receptacles, Cables, and Pinouts” section on page 1-5 for cable recommendations and speciﬁcations.)

Step 3 Attach the network end of your RJ-45 (SC) or MII cable to your 100BaseT transceiver,

switch, hub, repeater, DTE, or other external 100BaseT equipment.

Note After your MII transceiver is connected and the PA-FE interface is conﬁgured as

up, you can verifythat your MII transceiverresponds to physical sublayer (PHY) address 0 by disconnecting the transceiver from the MII receptacle; if the PA-FE interface goes down, then your MII transceiver responds to PHY address 0.

This completes the PA-FE port adapter cable installation.

CHAPTER

Configuring PA-FE Port Adapter Interfaces

To continue your PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX port adapter installation, you must conﬁgure the PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX interfaces. The following instructions apply to all supported platforms. Minor differences between the platforms are noted. This chapter contains the following sections:

• Using the EXEC Command Interpreter, page 8-2

• Identifying Chassis Slot, Port Adapter Slot, and PA-FE Interface Port Numbers, page 8-2

• Performing a Basic Conﬁguration, page 8-6

• Checking the Conﬁguration, page 8-9

After you verify that the new PA-FE interface is installed correctly (the enabled LED goes on), use the privileged-level conﬁgure command to conﬁgure the new interfaces. Have the following information available:

• Protocols you plan to route on each new interface

• IP addresses if you plan to conﬁgure the interfaces for IP routing

• A decision about the use of bridging on the new interfaces

The conﬁgure command requires privileged-levelaccess to the EXEC command interpreter, which usually requires a password. Contact your system administrator if necessary to obtain EXEC-level access.

For a summary of the conﬁguration options available and instructions for conﬁguring the Fast Ethernet interfaces on the supported platforms, refer to the documentation resources listed in the “Related Documentation” section on page vi.

Note You can conﬁgure each PA-FE interface on a PA-FE-TX or PA-FE-FX at 100 Mbps, half

duplex or full duplex, for a maximum aggregate bandwidth of 200 Mbps. Half-duplex operation is the default.

You can conﬁgure each PA-FEinterface on a PA-FE-TXor PA-FE-FX at 100 Mbps, half duplex, for a maximum aggregate bandwidth of 200 Mbps.

You can conﬁgure each PA-FE interface on a PA-FE-TX or PA-FE-FX port adapter at 100 Mbps, full duplex, for a maximum aggregate bandwidth of 400 Mbps.

You can conﬁgure one PA-FEinterface at 100 Mbps, half duplex, and the second FE interface at 100 Mbps, full duplex, for a maximum aggregate bandwidth of 300 Mbps.

Configuring PA-FE Port Adapter Interfaces 8-1

Using the EXEC Command Interpreter

You modify the conﬁguration of your router through the software command interpreter called the EXEC. You must enter the privileged level of the EXEC command interpreter (also called enable mode) with the enable command before you can use the conﬁgure command to conﬁgure a new interface or to change the existing conﬁguration of an interface. The system prompts you for a password if one has been set.

The system prompt for the privileged level ends with a pound sign (#) instead of an angle bracket (>). At the console terminal, use the following procedure to enter the privileged level:

Step 1 At the user-levelEXEC prompt, enter the enable command. The EXEC prompts you for

a privileged-level password as follows:

Router> enable

Password:

Step 2 Enter the password (the password is case sensitive). For security purposes, the password

is not displayed. When you enter the correct password, the system displays the privileged-level system

prompt (#):

Router#

If you installed a new PA-FE or if you want to change the conﬁguration of an existing interface, you must enter conﬁguration mode using the conﬁguration command. If you replaced an interface that was previously conﬁgured, the system recognizes the new interface and brings it up in its existing conﬁguration.

Identifying Chassis Slot, Port Adapter Slot, and PA-FE Interface Port Numbers

The following section describes how to identify the chassis slot, port adapter slot, and PA-FE interface port numbers for Cisco 7100 series routers, Cisco 7200 series routers, Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband routers, and the VIP2.

Cisco 7200 Series and Cisco uBR7200 Series Ports

Physical port addresses specify the actual physical location of each interface port on the router. On Cisco 7200 series routers and Cisco uBR7200 series universal broadband routers, this address is composed of two parts in the format port adapter slot number/interface port number, as follows:

• The ﬁrst number identiﬁes the slot in which the PA-FE is installed.

• The second number identiﬁes the interface port on the PA-FE, which is always numbered as

interface 0.

8-2

PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX Fast Ethernet 100BaseT Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

Note For the Cisco 7206VXR and Cisco 7206 router shelves, physical port addresses are

composed of a three-part number in the format shelf number/port adapter slot number/interface port number, where the shelf number is a number assigned to the router shelf during the initial

conﬁguration of the Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server. A Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server can consist of several shelves; therefore, each shelf is assigned a shelf number.

The Cisco 7206VXR and the Cisco 7206 can be used as router shelves in a Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server.For information about the Cisco 7206VXR and the Cisco 7206 as router shelves, see the Cisco 7200 Series Port Adapter Hardware Conﬁguration Guidelines.

You can identify interface ports by physically checking the slot/interface port location on the front of the router or by using show commands to display information about a speciﬁc interface or all interfaces in the router.

Interface ports maintain the same address regardless of whether other port adapters are installed or removed from the slot. However, when you move a port adapter to a different slot, the port adapter slot number in the address changes to reﬂect the new slot number.

Note The I/O controller is available with or without a Fast Ethernet port. You can install both I/O

controller types in all Cisco 7200 series routers; however, when you install an I/O controller with a Fast Ethernet port in a Cisco 7202, the system software automatically disables the port.

Configuring PA-FE Port Adapter Interfaces 8-3

Identifying Chassis Slot, Port Adapter Slot, and PA-FE Interface Port Numbers

The individual interface port numbers always begin with 0. The number of additional ports depends on the number of ports on a port adapter. For example, if the PA-FE in slot 4 (with the interface address 4/0 [port adapter slot 4, and interface port 0]) were in slot 2, the port adapter’s interface would be numbered 2/0.

Note For the Cisco 7206VXR and Cisco 7206 router shelves, the PA-FE in port adapter slot 4

would have the address x/4/0, where x is the number assigned to the router shelf during the initial conﬁguration of the Cisco AS5800 Universal Access Server.

Figure 8-2 shows the port adapter slots and interface ports of a Cisco uBR7200 series router. For a Cisco uBR7246, the port adapter slots are numbered 1 and 2 and for a Cisco uBR7223, the port adapter slot in numbered 1. (Slot 0 is always reserved for the Fast Ethernet port on the I/O controller—if present.) The individual interface port numbers always begin with 0. The number of additional ports depends on the number of ports on a port adapter.

H11505

On the VIP2 installed in Cisco 7500 series or Cisco 7000 series routers, physical port addresses specify the actual physical location of each interface port on the router interface processor end. (See Figure 8-3.) However, when you move a VIP2 to a different slot, the ﬁrst number in the address changes to reﬂect the new chassis slot number. This address is composed of a three-part number in the format chassis slot number/port adapter number/interface port number, as follows:

• The ﬁrst number identiﬁes the chassis slot in which the VIP2 is installed (as shown in the

example system in Figure 8-3).

8-4

• The second number identiﬁes the physical port adapter number on the VIP2, either 0 or 1.

• The third number identiﬁes the interface port on the PA-FE, which is always numbered as

interface 0.

PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX Fast Ethernet 100BaseT Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

Note Although the processor slots in the seven-slot Cisco 7000 and Cisco 7507 and thirteen-slot

Cisco 7513 are vertically oriented and those in the ﬁve-slot Cisco 7010 and Cisco 7505 are horizontally oriented, all models use the same method for slot and port numbering.

Interface ports on the VIP2 maintain the same address regardless of whether other interface processors are installed or removed. However, when you move a VIP2 to a different slot, the ﬁrst number in the address changes to reﬂect the new slot number.

Figure 8-3 shows some of the slot port adapter and interface ports of a sample Cisco 7505 router. The ﬁrst port adapter slot number is 0, and the second port adapter slot number is 1. The individual FEinterfacenumbersarealways0. Forexample, on the FE-equipped VIP2 in slot 3 (see Figure 8-3), the address of the FE interface is 3/0/0 (interface processor slot 3, port adapter slot 0, and interface port 0). If a second PA-FE were installed in port adapter slot 1 on this VIP2, its address would be 3/1/0.

Note If you removethe PA-FE-equipped VIP2 (see Figure 8-3) from slot 3 and install it in interface

processor slot 2, the address of this FE port becomes 2/0/0.

Note: The MII and RJ-45 interface ports on the first port adapter are both numbered as interface port 0. Only one interface can be used on each port adapter at a time.

You can also identify interface ports by physically checking the slot/port adapter/interface port location on the back of the router or by using software commands to display information about a speciﬁc interface or all interfaces in the router.

Cisco 7100 Series Ports

In Cisco 7100 series routers, the slot number is the location in the chassis where the interface resides andthe port number is the physical port. Interfaces in the Cisco IOS software are identiﬁed by a type, slot number, and port number. For example, serial 3/1 indicates port 1 on the serial port adapter in slot 3.

Performing a Basic Conﬁguration

Following are instructions for a basic conﬁguration enabling an interface and specifying IP routing. You might also need to enter other conﬁguration subcommands, depending on the requirements for your system conﬁguration and the protocols you plan to route on the interface. For more information on FE interface conﬁgurations on supported platforms, refer to the modular conﬁguration and modular command reference publications in the Cisco IOS software conﬁguration documentation set that corresponds to the software release installed on your Cisco hardware.

In the following procedure, press the Return key after each step unless otherwise noted. At any time you can exit the privileged level and return to the user level by entering disable at the prompt as follows:

Router# disable

Router>

8-6

PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX Fast Ethernet 100BaseT Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

Use the following sample basic conﬁguration procedure:

Step 1 At the privileged-level prompt, enter conﬁguration mode and specify that the console

terminal is the source of the conﬁguration subcommands, as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)#

Step 2 The following examples explain how to conﬁgure the fastethernet interface:

• For the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, and the Cisco uBR7200 series, at the

prompt specify the ﬁrst interface to conﬁgure by entering the subcommand interface, followed by the type (fastethernet) and slot/interface (port adapter slot number and interfacenumber).Theexamplethat follows is for the ﬁrst interface of the port adapter in slot 4:

Router(config)# interface fastethernet 4/0

Note For the Cisco 7206VXR and Cisco 7206 router shelves, the interface speciﬁed in

the above example would include a shelf number. For example, the command interface fastethernet 5/4/0 would specify the ﬁrst FE interface of the port adapter in slot 4 of router shelf 5.

• For the VIP2, at the prompt specify the ﬁrst interface to conﬁgure by entering the

subcommand interface, followed by the type (fastethernet) and slot/port-adapter/interface. The example that follows is for the ﬁrst interface of the ﬁrst port adapter, on a VIP2 in interface processor slot 1:

Router(config)# interface fastethernet 1/0/0

Step 3 If IP routing is enabled on the system, you can assign an IP address and subnet mask to

the interface with the ip address conﬁguration subcommand, as in the following example:

Router(config-int)# ip address 10.0.0.0 10.255.255.255

Step 4 Add any additional conﬁguration subcommands required to enable routing protocols and

set the interface characteristics.

Step 5 Change the shutdown state to up and enable the interface as follows:

Router(config-int)# no shutdown

Step 6 Conﬁgure additional interfaces as required. Step 7 When you have included all of the conﬁguration subcommands to complete the

conﬁguration, press Ctrl-Z to exit conﬁguration mode.

Step 8 Write the new conﬁguration to nonvolatile memory as follows:

Router# copy running-config startup-config [OK] Router#

This completes the procedure for creating a basic conﬁguration. Tocheck the interface conﬁguration using show commands, proceed to the “Checking the Conﬁguration” section on page 8-9.

Configuring PA-FE Port Adapter Interfaces 8-7

Performing a Basic Configuration

Conﬁguring PA-FE Transmission Mode

Half-duplex operation is the default transmission mode for the PA-FE. Use the full-duplex command to conﬁgure full-duplex operation for the PA-FE as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)# Router(config)# interface fastethernet 4/0 Router(config-if)# full-duplex Ctrl-z

Use the show interfaces fastethernet command to verify that the 4/0 Fast Ethernet interface is now conﬁgured for full-duplex operation as follows:

Router# show interfaces fastethernet 4/0 FastEthernet 4/0 is administratively up, line protocol is up (display text omitted) Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set, keepalive not set, fdx, 100BaseTX

Use the no full-duplex command to return the interface to half-duplex operation as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)# interface fastethernet 4/0 Router(config-if)# no full-duplex Ctrl-z Router#

Use the show interfaces fastethernet command to verify that the 4/0 Fast Ethernet interface is now conﬁgured for half-duplex operation as follows:

Router# show interfaces fastethernet 4/0 FastEthernet2/0 is administratively up, line protocol is up (display text omitted) Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set, keepalive not set, hdx, 100BaseTX (display text omitted)To check the interface configuration using show commands, proceed to the “Checking the Configuration” section on page 8-9.

To check the interface conﬁguration using show commands, proceed to the “Checking the Conﬁguration” section on page 8-9.

Conﬁguring PA-FE Media Type

The RJ-45 receptacle is the default media type for PA-FE-TX and the SC receptacle (for ﬁber-optic connections) is the default media type for the PA-FE-FX. Use the media-type mii command to conﬁgure the MII receptacle as the media type for the PA-FE as follows:

Router# configure terminal Enter configuration commands, one per line. End with CNTL/Z. Router(config)# interface fastethernet 4/0 Router(config-if)# media-type mii Ctrl-z Router# show interface fastethernet 4/0 FastEthernet3/0/0 is administratively up, line protocol is up (display text omitted) Encapsulation ARPA, loopback not set, keepalive not set, hdx, MII (display text omitted)

8-8

Use the media-type 100 command to return the media type for the PA-FE’s to the RJ-45 receptacle or SC receptacle.

PA-FE-TX and PA-FE-FX Fast Ethernet 100BaseT Port Adapter Installation and Configuration

To check the interface conﬁguration using show commands, proceed to the “Checking the Conﬁguration” section on page 8-9.

Checking the Conﬁguration

After conﬁguring the new interface, use the show commands to display the status of the new interface or all interfaces and the ping command to check connectivity.

Using show Commands to Verify the New Interface Status

The following steps use show commands to verify that the new interfaces are conﬁgured and operating correctly.

Step 1 Use the show version command to display the system hardware conﬁguration. Ensure

that the list includes the new interfaces.

Step 2 Display the current port adapters and interfaces as follows:

• For the Cisco 7100 series, Cisco 7200 series, and the Cisco uBR7200 series, display

all the current port adapters and their interfaces with the show controllers command. Verify that the new PA-FE appears in the correct slot.

• For the VIP2, display all the current interface processors and their interfaces with the

showcontrollerscbuscommand. Verify that the new VIP2 appears in the correct slot.

Step 3 Specify the new interfaces as follows:

• For the Cisco 7100, Cisco 7200 series and the Cisco uBR7200 series, specify one of

the newinterfaces with the show interfaces port adapter type slot/interface command and verify that the ﬁrst line of the display speciﬁes the interface with the correct slot number. Also verify that the interface and line protocol are in the correct state: up or down.

Note For the Cisco 7206VXR and Cisco 7206 router shelves, the show interfaces

command requires a shelf number in the format show interfaces type shelf number/port adapter slot/interface.

• For the VIP2, specify one of the new interfaces with the show interfaces type

slot/port-adapter/interface command and verify that the ﬁrst line of the display

speciﬁes the interface with the correct slot number. Also verify that the interface and line protocol are in the correct state: up or down.

Step 4 Display the protocols conﬁgured for the entire system and speciﬁc interfaces with the

show protocols command. If necessary, return to conﬁguration mode to add or remove protocol routing on the system or speciﬁc interfaces.

Step 5 Display the running conﬁguration ﬁle with the show running-conﬁg command. Display

the conﬁguration stored in NVRAM using the show startup-conﬁg command. Verify that the conﬁguration is accurate for the system and each interface.

Configuring PA-FE Port Adapter Interfaces 8-9

Checking the Configuration

If the interface is down and you conﬁgured it as up, or if the displays indicate that the hardware is not functioning properly, ensure that the network interface is properly connected and terminated. If you still have problems bringing the interface up, contact a service representative for assistance.

Note For complete command descriptions and examples for all of the supported platforms, refer to

the documentation resources listed in the “Related Documentation” section on page vi.

Cisco 7200 Series, Cisco 7100 Series, and Cisco uBR7200 Series show Commands

With the show interfaces type slot/port command, use arguments such as the interface type (fastethernet, and so forth) and the port number (slot/port) to display information about a speciﬁc interface only. The following example of the show interfaces fastethernet command shows information speciﬁc to the Fast Ethernet interface on the ﬁrst PA-FE in slot 4:

Proceed to the next section, “Using the ping Command”, to verify that each interface port is functioning properly.

Using the ping Command

The ping command allows you to verify that an interface port is functioning properly and to check the path between a speciﬁc port and connected devices at various locations on the network. After you verifythatthe system has booted successfully and is operational, you can use this command to verify the status of interface ports. Refer to the documentation resources listed in the “Related Documentation” section on page vi for detailed command descriptions and examples.

The ping command sends echo request packets out to a remote device at an IP address that you specify.After sending an echo request, the command waits a speciﬁed time for the remote device to reply.Each echo reply appears as an exclamation point (!) on the console terminal; each request that is not returned before the speciﬁed timeout appears as a period (.). A series of exclamation points

(!!!!!) indicates a good connection; a series of periods (.....) or the messages [timed out] or [failed]

indicate that the connection failed.

Configuring PA-FE Port Adapter Interfaces 8-13

Checking the Configuration

Following is an example of a successful ping command to a remote server with the address

172.16.0.0:

Router# ping 172.16.0.0 Type escape sequence to abort. Sending 5, 100-byte ICMP Echoes to 10.0.0.0, timeout is 2 seconds: !!!!! Success rate is 100 percent (5/5), round-trip min/avg/max = 1/15/64 ms Router#

If the connection fails, verify that you have the correct IP address for the destination and that the device is active (powered on), and repeat the ping command.
